Our football match prediction:

San Jose Earthquakes

Match Time & Date:

03:30 GMT

Prediction: 2-1

Chicago Fire

Chicago Fire will be looking to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to Philadelphia Union when they take on San Jose Earthquakes at Avaya Stadium. Veljko Paunovic’s men have been totally unpredictable in the MLS this season, but they obviously produce much better performances at home than on the travels. San Jose, on the other hand, aim to retain their spot in top six in the Western Conference and we predict that both sides will go for a win in Thursday’s football match. The Earthquakes have been impressive at home ground so far this term and that is the main reason why home win should be considered. A man to watch in Chirs Leitch’s team will be USA ace Chris Wondolowski, who has netted 11 goals in the league to date. Taking everything into account, there is a certain value in betting on San Jose, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home.

Highligted Player (Danny Hoesen):

After making only one league appearance for Fortuna Sittard, Daniel Hoesen joined English club Fulham in 2009, but he did not see any game action for the capital club during his spell at Craven Cottage as he was sent on loan to HJK and Fortuna Sittard. In 2012 the 186-cm tall attacker signed a deal with Ajax and he scored seven goals in 32 league appearances for the Amstedammers from 2012 to 2014. In 2014 he joined fellow Eredivisie outfit Groningen and during the 2016/2017 season he was on San Jose Earthquakes’ radar. The Dutch footballer, who was born on January 15, 1991 in Heerlen, Limburg will play for the MLS outfit (on loan) in the 2017 season. Speaking of his international career, Daniel Hoesen has 10 caps for Netherlands U17 team and he made three appearances for the Dutch U21 side. He is still a Groningen player and his contract with the Eredivisie side expires on June 30, 2018.
